I doubt anyone will really see this and even if they do, Im not sure it will matter. I lost one of my rats today. Sabin. Like his name sake, he was a bear. A gentle giant. The first to run to me to give me kisses and the last to run off. It has been a very difficult month.

I was hospitalized around 2 weeks ago for 4 days. And I am still recovering from that ordeal. Ive learned Ive become diabetic and financially, I like so many others am in shambles. It is all so, so very much. I just wanted to shout into the void a bit. Maybe to help me feel less sad.

One more week.until Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines 2 releases! You'd better believe we'll be streaming it at Midnight EDT on the 21st! And to commemorate, we'll be kicking off a raffle for a $50 PSN/Steam/XBox giftcard that will run 3 weeks. The more you watch the more tickets you earn!

Absolutely losing my shit playing the Nioh 3 demo! This game is everything i could have ever hoped for in a sequel so far and I am blown away! If you like Nioh, play this demo! It's only around for the next 2 weeks!

Just a heads up to any of my fellow gaming enthusiasts: Dead Island 2 is free on Epic Games Store today. I don't say this lightly, but it is one of the top 5 games in its genre that Ive ever played! Also, play as Jacob, thank me later!

Relistening to Blackstar, Bowie's final album, and fuck, this album is like hearing his eulogy. Like, he KNEW at this point and it comes through in the music, the lyrics, the arrangement. Just everywhere. There's a darkness and beauty to every single word, every movement. I miss him so much, man.

@yongyea.bsky.social I owe you an apology. When I first heard you'd be voicing Kiryu, I was bummed. I think it was a stubborn part of me that wanted to cling to what I knew. I'm well into Infinite Wealth now and I gotta say, you killed it! Can't imagine anyone else in the role now!

44 years on this planet today. It's crazy to look back and wonder where the time went, but also, to reflect on where I've been and who I've become. To say that me 15 years ago was a completely different person is nothing short of absolute truth! I marvel at the complexity of life.

So watching my wife play Farming Simulator '25, I've noticed some pretty odd things. Overall, it seems like there's been pretty broad improvements to systems, but the AI for hired help seems a bit lacking and I'm just not sure what to think. FSR 3 is a game changer and everything looks AMAZING!

Really loving Dan Da Dan so far! Between that and the Ranma remake, I couldn't be happier with my Saturday night watch list! Now just waiting on season 2 of Kenshin! It's my favorite arc!

I really love Throne & Liberty, but I REALLY wish that I could get NCSoft to make a server completely decoupled from the PvP. Or at least limit the use of eclipse to once a day per server.

We're coming to the climax of our Vampire the Masquerade chronicle: Fangs and Loathing in Las Vegas! The stage is set! Hunters have infiltrated havens, a bloody red Eclipse and Vincent and Emily are critical! Can the coterie salvage this? Twitch.tv/recon_rats 8:30pm EST tonight!

No VtM tonight, as two of our cast had previous engagements, but we'll highlight one of the characters all the same! This is Daisuke Yoichi! A Salubri night doctor! He serves the Kindred of Las Vegas while also trying to hide his clan from them! He wears an Elvis costume and wig to hide his eye!

Next on our introduction of player characters for our VtM v5 game Fangs and Loathing, here is Mortekai! He's a Toreador who is very freshly embraced! A gambling man who likes to play with chance; he knows next to nothing about the World of Darkness, but with his coterie mates, he's going to learn.

Evelyn, our Lasombra ass kicker in our current VtM v5 chronicle. Played by Tori, she is the owner of the Garden of Eve, a discreet social club on the outskirts of Las Vegas.

Fall of the House of Usher was the best Vampire the Masquerade chronicle I've ever seen! But seriously, if you haven't watched, it's unbelievable, and you definitely should check it out!

There's few things I live more than introducing a new group of players to the World of Darkness, and more specifically, Vampire the Masquerade as a whole. Last Thursday, we started a new Chronicle, and seeing my players, (2 old-time returnees, and 2 complete newbs) so excited has me stoked.

We lost one of our little ones today. If you've ever seen our twitch channel, you know our rat Toby. His brother, Hugo, passed today and I'm just having a lot of trouble dealing with it. I love my rats so very much. But this loss is really taking a toll. Here's the last picture I have of him.
